My Latest New Toy
« on: September 19, 2012, 02:45:49 PM »
It's a Dan Wesson 15-2VH .357 mag pistol pack. It comes with a 2.5", 4", 6", and 8" barrels. I'm still trying to figure out what the wood thingie below the tool is. It's darker than the spare grip. It also has no flange, shelf, whatever you want to call it to catch on a screw head, so it does not go on the bottom of the spare grip.

I do believe I got me a keeper here! 24 feet using 125 grain PMC JHP, and the 8" barrel. (I didn't remember to bring a allen wrench to fix the windage and elevation)

Very nice.  ;)  I'd wanted a wesson pack for many years.  I was sad when they quit making them and only make .45 auto's now.  Watched for used, but haven't found any like that.  ;)

Dan Wesson has started producing model 15s again @ the Norwich, NY plant and they are as good as anything they have made. If you dont mind spending $1200.

Got it on Gunbroker. Found a transfer dealer who only charges 20 bucks.

congrats there great shooting guns. Ive never seen one that wasnt exceptionaly accurate. My guess is the wood thing was used by the previous owner to set barrel to cyl gap. kind of a makeshift feeler guage.
